I'm on my second pack second week of otc lo and I've noticed that each week when the hormone levels change I get side effects again.

Hi ariane05,

I'm sorry you are having a difficult time. I'm afraid what you are experiencing can be expected in some women but the symptoms should begin to lessen and hopefully disappear by the fourth cycle. A triphasic is more prone to doing this sort of thing because of the three different doses of hormones but most user’s bodies become adjusted and then they have no problems. I hope you feel better soon. If not you may want to talk with your doctor about switching to a monophasic. Let us know how you're doing, ok?

Hugs,

      Jill

I've had similar experiences-never really paid attention to the "hormone levels" and when my problems occured though.Most birth control pills made me nauseaus.
